In response to increasing awareness of the very real risks for late preterm infants, the National Perinatal Association has worked in collaboration with many partners across the spectrum of care, to create multidisciplinary guidelines that provide evidence-based recommendations for the care of late preterm infants.

These guidelines give healthcare providers and others a road map that focuses attention on the unique needs of late preterm infants from birth through early childhood, helping to ensure potential health risks aren't overlooked.
